Ustream Adds a Spare $2 Million

The funding adds onto an $11.1 million Series A round the Mountain View, Calif.-based company took last year, said spokesperson Shari Foldes. “Due to Ustream’s explosive growth, existing investors chose to exercise their right to invest more into the company,” she said. “Ustream is excited with both the sign of confidence as well as the additional resources to accelerate our current trajectory.” Ustream has now raised at least $15 million, on par with the $12.7 million competitor Livestream has raised, but more, we believe than what Justin.tv has raised, though that company has kept its financing private.
